ghost city

Chapter 13

In the past few days, Young Master Ling led the guards under his tent to go day and night, and they had rushed to Daidi, where they set up camp on a high ground near the water.

There are [-] ghost guards under him, of which the infantry is the most, about [-], and the rest are [-] cavalry and [-] chariot soldiers.

Soon after arriving, Prince Ling immediately ordered his subordinates to build a camp.The entire camp is backed by hills, and the camp headquarters of the Chinese army is in it. The two armies on the left and right are separated into two wings, forming an arch guard.But for camp defense, Young Master Ling didn't ask too much.Meng Yao, his subordinate, felt quite strange: Young Master has always been shrewd and cautious, why is he so negligent about camp defense this time?This place is densely forested and vulnerable to attack. It is a good place to build a camp, but the camps of the three armies are like sloppy temporary camps. If they are attacked at night, what will happen?

Maybe he was thinking too much, young master, he might have other plans.

There were no lights burning in the shogunate, but a night pearl was enough to illuminate the entire camp.Wei Ling and his deputy Meng Yao were discussing the battle in front of the map, but a guard rushed to report.

"My lord, someone is coming to look for you." The guard walked away in a hurry, the sword at his waist still knocking against the iron armor clanging.But just as he finished speaking, he saw that the curtain was blown up by a gust of wind, and a black shadow flashed into the tent.

The black shadow fell to the ground like a whirlwind, like a black lotus blooming out of thin air.The visitor pulled off the hood, revealing a delicate face.However, the cloak was still a little bulky for her.

Just when Meng Yao and the guards were both stunned, Wei Ling spoke lightly, his brows were slightly frowned, and although his icy face was expressionless, there was still a trace of displeasure.

"Since they have been notified, why are you rushing in so rashly?"

A Zi raised the corner of his mouth: "Are you angry?"

Wei Ling waved his hand to signal Meng Yao and the guards to back down, then looked at the girl with a rather serious expression: "The army has its own rules, and you can't let your temper mess around."

At this moment, he was dressed in white clothes and silver armor, with a sword of Tangxi on his waist. Against that icy jade-like stern face, he added a touch of majesty to the cold.

The girl looked at him quietly for a long time, as if she found another shadow from him.Throat clenched, and the prepared rebuttal words were swallowed.She lowered her head slightly, her eyes dimmed.

Seeing that she was silent, Wei Ling patted her on the shoulder: "You've been exhausted all the way, come and drink some water."

"No," the girl waved her hand and said calmly, "I want to go for a walk, would you like to go with me?"

Wei Ling couldn't help being taken aback. He had gotten used to the girl's surly temper a few days ago, but now she suddenly became docile, and he couldn't adapt to it for a while.

"Okay." He agreed lightly.

A half-round cold moon hangs in the night, and the cold silver glow passes through the gaps between the branches and falls to the ground, like frost on the ground.The night wind pierced through the forest, making the dead branches rustle.

Azi wrapped the cloak tightly to prevent any wind from entering.She didn't use the instant shadow technique, so she couldn't keep up with Wei Ling's pace.

"Is it cold?" Wei Ling turned around but saw her shrinking.

The girl shook her head and followed quickly without making a sound.

Wei Ling looked at her, hesitated for a moment, but still didn't take off his robe and put it on for her.This girl has a perverse temperament, the more he tries to protect her, the more she will ridicule her.After a few days, he also got a feel for her temper, so he simply ignored her.

The two chose a leeward hillside to sit down, just as the moonlight fell on them.

The silvery glow reflected on Wei Ling's icy face, showing that his complexion is crystal clear and has a dreamlike beauty.Azi just glanced at him, then turned his head away.

"How is the situation in Xianyang?" Wei Ling asked.

The girl didn't even look at him, but just picked up a dead branch, and said indifferently: "The plan for the east tour has not changed. It is estimated that in the next spring, Ying Zheng's car will leave Xianyang. At that time, I must follow Ying Zheng. Do you have any questions?" Are you determined to solve the problem here as soon as possible?"

"That depends on Guo Kai's actions. I sent scouts to find out that Guo Kai and Liao Qiang have led the army to leave Youwang City, and they will arrive here in about two days. You should know this." Wei Ling looked blankly Looking at the night sky, there is no emotion in the words.

"Guo Kai actually came in person." The girl thought to herself, but then she thought again, "That's right, he did this job, so how can you rest assured if he doesn't come in person. If the city guards mutiny outside, he can't control it at all. However, I made an agreement with Guo Kai that I would meet him when I came back from Xianyang. This old thief really doesn't trust me."

Her heart was still churning, and she didn't respond for a long time. Wei Ling still sat there without saying a word.

"Did you give Sima Shang a challenge?" She suddenly turned her head, looked at Wei Ling, and unexpectedly met the pair of eyes that were staring at her.

Her face suddenly became stiff, she turned her head nonchalantly, and re-examined the night sky.

"Not yet. I'll wait for you to come back." The man's deep words rang in his ears again.

The young girl immediately understood Guo Kai's intentions: he wanted to win over Wang Liao, isolate Sima Shang, and then sit back and watch Sima Shang fight Wei Ling to profit from it.According to Wei Ling's intention, he didn't want to have a fierce battle with Sima Shang.And the barrier between the two lies in her.It would be best for her to come forward in this matter.

"Okay. I'll go then." The girl agreed happily.

The two fell into silence again.The girl stared at the night sky boredly, without making a sound.And Wei Ling just looked down at the moon shadow on the ground, wondering what he was thinking.

She never thought that she would be alone with Wei Ling outside Youwang City.And this person is the enemy who took his own life.

A dream floated up in my heart and was crushed by her.It was only in order to complete Xinghun's confession that she had no choice but to live in peace with Wei Ling.After this matter is over, she and him are still enemies.This is a fact that can never be changed.

Thinking of this, he clenched his fist slightly, and a chill passed through his heart.

Don't have any more illusions about this person!

"How did you become Yingmei and join the Xinghun sect?" Wei Ling's cold voice suddenly came to mind, bringing her back to reality.

"Me," she sneered and shook her head, "after my death, my soul was taken by my uncle, but on the way, I was robbed by some puppets who didn't know whether it was a human or a ghost. The whereabouts of those things were erratic, and my uncle unexpectedly I couldn’t catch up. Then I was taken to Xianyang.”

"It turns out that she devoted herself to the Qin Empire like this." Wei Ling thought to himself, but remained silent.

"I was originally a lonely soul, but later someone gave me a secret technique, and I was soaked in the cold and dark forbidden abyss for a whole ninety-nine and eighty-one days. When I came out, I became a shadow ghost and joined the net."

"Luo Wang also knows the secret technique of controlling ghosts?" Wei Ling asked in surprise.Except for Youwang City, probably only the Yin-Yang family can control ghosts, but this technique is regarded as a forbidden technique by the Yin-Yang family and does not use it.

"No," the girl shook her head, "Luo Wang definitely doesn't know such secret techniques, there must be someone else. But I don't know who it is?"

"and after?"

"I didn't do much in the trap, and I have never been reused. This is also just right. I don't bother to take those dirty tasks. Later, I rescued Fusu, and he recommended me to join the Star Soul sect. After that, I quickly Master the shadow charm technique. It was also on Fusu's recommendation that I became Ying Zheng's bodyguard."

"Fu Su?" Wei Ling whispered in his heart, somehow, when this name was mentioned, his eyebrows frowned unnaturally.

"Did you kill the person who came to assassinate Qin?" Wei Ling asked instead.

"Killed." She looked up at the sparse stars in the sky, and replied lightly, "Of course I have to shoot when I have to. Otherwise, I will be the one who died. But I let some of them go, and finally they were taken care of by the star soul .” The girl said lightly, as if these bloody past events had nothing to do with her.

"Crack." The dry branch in his hand snapped off, leaving a bloodstain on the girl's white and tender palm.

It turns out that this body still bleeds.But why not feel pain?

"Later, Gao Jianli's assassination of the Qin Dynasty happened, and I was punished for my lack of security guards. I was spared death and sent to Hell because I helped Su plead for mercy. It was really like Forbidden Abyss, a good cold and dark place. Woolen cloth."

The girl's eyes suddenly flashed with excitement, and her tone of voice was rarely cheerful.

"Xiaoyou." Wei Ling murmured, with stabbing pains in his heart.The girl's cheerful tone was like a poisoned blade, cutting his heart one by one.

Trying to suppress his emotions, he asked lightly: "Fusu seems to care about you very much." He tried his best to keep his tone flat, but there was still a bit of sour taste.

The girl didn't realize it, and nodded lightly: "That's right. He really treated me very well, like his own sister. In the empire, he was the only person who treated me well. Unfortunately, I am just a humble Yingmei after all. "

"Are you sorry?" Wei Ling looked back at her suddenly, his tone suddenly raised.

"No." The girl didn't hear the hostility in his words, and continued, "I don't really care how he treats me. He just treats me as an older brother. After I stayed in Hell for a year, he was the one who recommended me. As Yingzheng's bodyguard, I was able to get out of prison."

The girl gathered the broken dead branches into a small pile and stopped talking.

Wei Ling fell into a long silence, just staring blankly ahead, without responding.

Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, the girl said again: "The story is over, how about it? Is it interesting?" The girl's cheerful voice brought him back to his thoughts.

His heart seemed to be beaten severely by someone again, Wei Ling turned his head slowly, his eyes flickered with pain.

There was always little expression on his face, and the girl was slightly taken aback seeing him like this.

"Xiaoyou..." He sighed, raised his hand slightly, and wanted to touch the girl's face, but he still held it back and froze in mid-air.

The two streams of clear water suppressed the undulating waves at this moment, and the ice-jade face was tense, as if it was about to burst.

"I'm sorry for you." He lowered his eyes, his voice was indescribably desolate and lonely, as if he had aged ten years suddenly.

He didn't understand, even if it was to stimulate him, how could the girl happily talk about her past?

"Wei Ling!" The smile on the girl's face suddenly disappeared, and her tone suddenly added a bit of chill, like the cold wind blowing over a dead branch, "I said, I don't need your apology and sympathy. You also Stop being so hypocritical. It's disgusting!"

The girl's face was full of vicious expressions, and her voice was sharp, like a ghost in the dark night.

Feeling like falling into an ice cave, Wei Ling stared blankly at her, and suddenly felt that the girl in front of her was very strange and far away, so far away that she would never be able to touch her.

Is this really the docile girl with long hair?

"Because you owe me, one day, I will get it back in full!" The girl left behind a sentence, turned and left.

The howling night wind came through the dry forest, and Wei Ling suddenly felt a chill down his back.
